I don't know if this has been asked and answered before, but I need some help please.. Okay you know how on the T-Mobile Dash when you select a program or whatever and when you go back to the homescreen the program is displayed?? Well I was wondering does anyone know how to clear them from there when you are done using it?? Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Also I installed a program and didn't like it so I deleted it but the short cut or whatever was still on my homescreen so I had to reset my phone to get it cleared..
Thanks as always
Doesn't the default homescreen display your most recently used programs? If so, just use other programs until the one in question is pushed off of the list.

I know that, I was wondering if there was something else I could use..
If you never want to see those icons go and edit the home xml. Your home screens are in Application Data/Home (or something like that, I'm not sure). Find the xml file you are currently using as Home screen and edit it on a PC. Remove the snippet of the MRU list.
Sorry I don't know a way to actually clear the list on the go.
(BTW, a quick note: please refrain yourself from using red. It's pretty hard to read.)

Anybody else have the problem where WM6 keeps reverting back to the original hoemscreen on bootup?
I've been trying to get it to use the Myphone screen layout, but it keeps goign back to the ugly blue one.
I have the same exact problem, not sure if there's a fix.
the fix is definately posted here.
just delete or rename the default homescreen and your good to go.
its also in the registry somewhere if you care to hunt it down.
I deleted the default home screen, but it just goes to another screen, not the one I choose to be my home screen. If anyone knows a link to the fix I'd appreciate it.

Thanks. I'll do a search.
Henchman if you find it could you please post it here?

are you sure you deleted the right homescreen?

They have a service running at boot up called My5Service - this beast is overwriting stuff and enforcing pink settings again..
Search for My5.. in registry and overwrite f.e. the Homescreen setting. The service will then put that theme on every boot.
Wehenever the HTC WM6 version is ready - pls post that, I hate this T-Mobile "§$&%§%&//&()!
As far as I know my faves settings have not really been covered.
Funny I just started my faves today and am researching this problem right now.
deleting the value causes the phone to first try and load my faves and then give up and load the last used homescreen. Renaming to the current homescreen works but then you have to change it when you change your homescreen. ugh.
there has to be a setting somewhere to change the default to off but so far I have not found it.
Hi Everyone,
I upgraded to the O2 WM6 ROM last night and theres a few things I cant do that I could on WM5 and was wondering if someone could tell me how.
1. On the desktop i cant get the two buttons at the bottom to change from Calender on the left and contacts on the right.
2. The running problems icon has gone from the start menu options and I cant find it anywhere
I know these are trivial but you know what its like when you set something up the way you want and get use to it and then its taken away.
Cheers everyone.

Hi,
1. Just copy the file into the windows folder, do a soft reset, and go to start\settings\system... you will find the solution to remap the softkeys...
View attachment SoftKeyApplet.zip
2. Install this program. It will make an icon to the top right of the today screen. By this icon you can manage your running programs.

Cheers zsitvayb, worked a treat.
Is there a way to remove the battery indicator from the bottom right corner of the desktop next to the comm manager. Im using batterystatus which is more accurate so i have no need for it

Yes, that's possible. You shold do some registry tweaking... Hereby you can find a descriptipn about the registry tweaking: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_Registry

Thanks for all your help

Provide the info you found please always helpful for others reading post
I sure can. actually it's pretty simple. Go to application data/home folder (example-whatever.home) file you want to tweak. email or what ever method you choose to get the file to your PC (I emailed it from my phone to myself). Open on PC and tweak using Notepad. Save your new version under a different name or same name and Autosync back to phone and put back in same folder and away you go with your new personalized homescreen. Let me know if this works for you as well. I will mess with it tonite and post before and after pics when done.

Is there any software on your x1 that u would like to have as a panel?
If there is please post a message with the path to the exe and i will try and make a panel.
If u can find 2 pics (one portrait and one landscape to match the software it would help.
ps. with a bit of luck some of the will turn out like my Google Maps Panel V2
(I will try my best but some may not work, and its only standard software, not plug in or UI)
Panel Making How X1 Panel link below
http://rapidshare.com/files/224422898/How_to_Make_X1_Panel.rar
Have Fun
An offer I can't refuse!
I'm not looking to have a specific program Panel-ized, but rather I'm interested in a panel that can disable TF3D upon entering(unless TF3D is turned off when you switch panels I'm not sure) and shows you a list of installed games or 3D apps. I Like to play games on my phone in short bursts and only when I need to kill a minute or 2, would be nice If it was a bit quicker to get right to the game rather than having to navigate several menus to disable TF3D and then opening programs and running the game.
If This is possible I would be greatly appreciative, also if it were possible to add/remove apps from its list either thru the panel or thru reg edit or editing a file that can be changed simply by adding a line with a link to the program I desire, that would be fantastic.
PS: I realize this is slightly different than what you are offering, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
should be possible to make a panel that opens your games folder (showing all your games, or to open a game (solitare etc).
not sure what u mean by add/remove list? do u mean the uninstall menu?
I will see if i can make a few panels for games, see what u think.
im using a standard rom, i dont know if your rom has a different path to the exe's, but will try and u let me know if they work on yours
im having a problem making it open the folder, for some reason when u tell it to autoload a folder it activates opera and shows u it as a page.
should be able to make any game autoload if u can give me the path (eg. program files - games -solitare).
still looking into the uninstall program (cant seem to find the exe in windows, if any one knows please let me know)
i will keep testing
sorry, I didnt mean uninstall, I meant have the ability to add or remove a game from being listed in the panel since I hope to add more games to my phone in the future, but if you want to just have it open a folder with shortcuts to my current games I suppose that would be easier and you could just use the current windows\start menu\programs\games folder which should be the same for everybody. All I'm really looking for with this is to be able to push panel button select "game Launcher" panel and select a game while having TF3d disabled while this panel (and subsequent game) is in use.
Again thank you for taking the time to help me and I'm sure anyone else who wants to play 3D games with this panel.

thanks for the proposal,
for me, I would LOVE to have the abililty to have the alarm clock, strait, and not having to goes to setting for activating an alarm...
I would like to know how, to create a path, for say, some folders who are located in the microcard, and we could goes on and on...
Thanks you...Also, very often when I try to install a software, even, when it tell me the software was beautifully installed, I never truly know, where it is, and, very often too, I can not see or use it....I do wonder if this could also be related to the size in pixels of some applications...?
I was thinking for my perfect panel......
Some thing like panel manager, but with the running apps.
Could you catch me????
I I have 2-3 or more apps (usually 2-3) running at the same time, if I press Xpanel button, the panel launch icons of the apps running, so i can touch the app I want to focus.....
Could be Possible????

look in the romove program settings, see if the software is there.
could be lots of reasons why its not working:
it may not be made for wm6.1
it may have to be installed in the phone memory not sd card
(dont think its the size of the screen as it would still show up as an icon but would not work when u start the program).
is it the built in alarm u want or a different program (eg spb time)
to get the path i need just go on the file explorer and list the path from the device to the alarm.exe (eg = sd card - program files -handy alarm - alarm.exe).

i dont think its possible to do without knowing serious programing. it is possible to make a panel that u press on that has still pics for each app (3 apps = 3 still pics) that u can press on to send u to the app u want.
for this i need the path to the 3 or more apps (program exe files) to make this happen

Hi all,
i've scoured both the net and forums for the answer to this;
basically i'd like a link to say MGS on my homescreen, similar to what the 4droid emulators do, but using fpse. Has anyone managed to do something like that? had a quick look at the fpseCE forums but it wasn't much help; i know that apps like bettercut can create custom shortcuts with the option to add (what i believe to be) parameters... no clue how to go about loading a game though.
im bumping this as i would like to know if this is possible also
Maybe tasker can do it
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
wahey! i couldn't believe i was the only one that was after this functionality!
I haven't got tasker, but if it's anything like bettercut (lists of 'actions' from applications) i'm leaning towards a no. Anybody got this that could give it a go please?
any solution for this yet?
RE
The feature was listed in the change log of a recent release.
Something like. 0.11.26 or so.
I'm not sure how it's supposed to work, though.
I don't see it in my widget screen like the other emulators...
yep it was introduced a while back; there's a "create shortcut" command somewhere in the menus. it'll create a shortcut and add it automatically to ur homescreen =]

Yup, enter a game, press the menu button, go into settings, misc, create shortcut. It's the 2nd to last option
too bad i cant use it with desktop virtualizer.
